Chapter 218: Xixi Breaks Through Divine Foundation, Six-Armed Two-Faced, Marvelous Tao Manifesting Sacred Three-Eyed True Monarch Strange Temple (Part 1)
At this moment, Li Cheng was extremely sensitive to the flow of Essence Qi, and Xixi suddenly jumped up from the bed, almost shattering the roof.
This indicated that Xixi couldn't control her own strength properly.
Li Cheng grabbed the little girl's ankle, and his powerful Divine Perception swept through her body, instantly feeling the surging power constantly churning within her.
Divine Nature, essence, and blood were all on the verge of transformation!
Li Cheng held Xixi in his arms. Her eyes were bright, and her little face was flushed, like a child who had secretly taken a sip of wine, looking extremely adorable.
Li Cheng reached out and touched Xixi's forehead.
It was scorching hot, like a branding iron, because her essence and blood were circulating at their peak.
"She's about to break through..."
Li Cheng sighed.
The four-year-old girl, at this rate, was about to break through Pulse Connection and Divine Foundation.
Pulse Connection was still manageable. With Xixi's Master Body tempered by three Mythical Divine Weapons, Pulse Connection wouldn't have much impact or issues.
However, breaking through Divine Foundation still carried a certain level of danger.
After all...
The Divine Nature technique Xixi cultivated was of the Three Pure Ones rank! 【Immortal Lotus Unbreakable】, divided into Nurturing Nature, Divine Foundation, Divine Form, Divine Essence, and Divine Embryo!
This was the technique Xixi obtained through resonance with the Strange Temple's deity!
The Three Pure Ones rank Divine Nature technique that allowed her to be escorted to the Divine Embryo realm was something that even Li Cheng envied.
"Daddy... Is Xixi sick?"
Xixi wrapped her small hands around Li Cheng's neck and asked pitifully.
She felt that she must have fallen ill.
She couldn't control her strength, her body was scorching hot, her Divine Nature was constantly boiling, and her Pivot Palace between her eyebrows felt like it was about to burst open.
She felt a little uncomfortable.
"Daddy, Xixi is sick. I want to go find Big Doggy."
Xixi blinked her eyes.
Li Cheng rubbed her head.
"Today, you'll go to the Divine Sect's main gate. Daddy promises that he'll take you to a restaurant at least three times a month to see Big Doggy, okay?"
Li Cheng said gently.
After all, he had promised the boss, so it was fine to promise his daughter as well.
One thing, two promises, he, Li Cheng, was truly a master of cost-effectiveness.
Upon hearing this, Xixi's eyes lit up: "Really?"
"Then hook pinky fingers!"
Xixi extended her little pinky.
Li Cheng smiled and hooked his pinky with hers.
"Hooked for a hundred years, no changing allowed. Whoever changes is a dog!"
Xixi solemnly recited the oath.
Li Cheng couldn't help but laugh at his own cleverness.
On the bed, Zhang Ya's hair was spread out, and she looked at the father and daughter with confusion. Her body was a bit weak, and she might need to laze around in bed a bit longer.
The Great Grandmaster was indeed formidable. She needed to become stronger to withstand the impact of a Great Grandmaster.
"Wifey, sleep a bit more. Later, we'll take Xixi to the main gate of the Divine Sect together."
"Xixi should be breaking through to the Pulse Connection realm, and this little girl... Her Divine Nature is also about to forge her Divine Foundation."
Li Cheng said gently.
On the bed, Zhang Ya immediately opened her eyes, all traces of sleepiness gone.
"Xixi is about to break through?"
"That's a big deal. Let's quickly take her there."
Zhang Ya didn't rest either and got up to pack.
After calling Li Qingshan, Mu Po Po, and Lao Chen for breakfast, Lao Chen went out to look for a job after arriving at Dao City, not wanting to cause trouble for Li Cheng.
Lao Chen was very patient and serious in choosing a job to avoid inconveniencing Li Cheng.
After breakfast, Lao Chen hurriedly left. Moments later, he drove a horse-drawn carriage, wearing a bamboo hat. He took a sip from a wine gourd and smiled.
"Get in the carriage."
Lao Chen laughed.
He found a job as a carriage driver, and even in Dao City, not everyone could do this job. It required a foundation in Martial Dao.
Many carriage drivers had at least Bone Tempering cultivation, and they were all blood-changed. For someone like Lao Chen with ordinary martial veins, finding a job as a carriage driver wasn't difficult.
The dragon horse wouldn't be easy to control without some Martial Dao cultivation.
"From now on, if you want to go to the Divine Sect, you can call me, Lao Chen. Take care of my business, okay?"
Lao Chen grinned.
Additionally, Lao Chen gave up on wood carving because the competition among woodcarvers in Dao City was fierce. Unless he became a master woodcarver, even if he became a woodcarver in a shop, he might not earn as much as a carriage driver.
Mainly, Lao Chen had been carving wood for decades and had reached his limit, making it difficult to achieve further breakthroughs.
It was boring, tiring, and time for a change.
"Little Stinky Xixi, wherever you want to go in the future, call your grandpa Chen, and I'll take you there!"
Lao Chen raised his chin proudly.
It was as if he was saying, 'Your grandpa Chen has a carriage now!'
Xixi's eyes lit up, both because of her impending breakthrough and because she was genuinely moved.
"Don't let your mind wander. It's dangerous outside. Wherever you want to go, tell your daddy."
Li Cheng rubbed Xixi's head and said.
Xixi pouted.
The group boarded the carriage, which was quite spacious.
As the carriage moved, the dragon horse, covered in fine scales, exhaled hot air from its nostrils and walked slowly.
After leaving Fragrant Lane, they saw that Uncle's family was also riding in a carriage down the alley.
Today was also the day Li Chengzhou was to formally join the Divine Sect, so Uncle's family naturally wouldn't miss it.
The two families greeted each other from their respective carriages.
Xixi lay on the car window, greeting enthusiastically.
"Where's the handsome Chengzhou? I haven't seen him in a while."
Xixi still remembered the very handsome Chengzhou.
"He's currently cultivating with Grand Master Nie inside the Divine Sect."
Auntie Liu Chunming replied with a smile.
"Then I can see him when I go to the Divine Sect. I'll protect him and make sure no one bullies him in the sect!"
Xixi clenched her little fist, her chubby face filled with a sense of responsibility as an older sister.
Amidst the laughter...
The spring rain was gently broken by the carriage's slow progress.
The wheel rims crushed the spring water, and the ripples shimmered in the spring breeze.
...
...
The events of last night in Dao City hadn't spread widely.
Not many people knew about Su Huali's death. Perhaps some were aware, but they were merely astonished that the disciple of the Pacifying War King had joined the Corpse God Sect, a ridiculous and shameful act.
It only added a few more jokes about the Pacifying War King being backstabbed by his own disciple.
As for Su Huali, not many people cared. He was dead, and in this era, countless martial artists and cultivators died unnoticed every day.
It was impossible for everyone to care.
You Liqing suppressed the news, preventing those with ill intentions from spreading it, which made Su Huali's death even more obscure and unremarkable.
However, the Divine Guard Army's wanted posters targeting the Netherworld's criminals were prominently displayed.
The rewards for capturing the Bull Demon, Ma Mian, or the Monkey God were extremely high.
Even the White and Black No-Constants were valued highly.
But just as Li Qingshan felt indignant, he, as the Netherworld's Cat-Faced Guard, couldn't even get his name on a wanted poster.
In less than three months, there were ninety consecutive days of rain.
The spring rain always arrived without warning. After a night of nourishing the earth, it stopped for just a moment before resuming, like woven smoke and mist, sprinkling the lush green fields in the east wind.
The dragons and horses neighed, exhaling hot air from their nostrils, and rhythmically lifted their hooves, trampling the puddles of rainwater on the ground.
The carriage moved swiftly. The main gate of the Divine Sect was located deep within the inner city of Dao City, amidst continuous mountains that resembled a sleeping dragon on the earth.
Numerous luxurious carriages galloped on the official road, all paved with neatly arranged green stones, ensuring a smooth ride without any bumps.
Li Cheng lifted the curtain and saw the main gate of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect in the distance.
A colossal white jade archway stood tall on the earth, with towering white stone pillars rising a hundred meters high, as if bursting out from the soil.
A massive wooden signboard hung on the white stone pillars!
"That's... a fourth-grade Spirit Wood!"
Li Cheng's breath caught in his throat.
His [Divine Art] Dao Fruit pulsated violently, as if rejoicing over the signboard.
The Star Plucking Eye in his forehead opened.
Infinite analysis, perceiving the void and returning to truth!
...
[Divine Armament (Four Virtues Inferior Grade): Divine Sect Gate Signboard]
[Craftsmanship: Made from Five Elders Supreme Spirit Wood Phoenix Blood Nanmu Wood, inscribed by the Founding Patriarch of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect, imbued with Dao Essence, absorbing the purple qi of the Divine Sect's Divine Child for thousands of years, can evolve to a Four Virtues Middle Grade]
[Introduction: The Divine Sect's plaque, containing a treasure soul, infused with phoenix spirit, capable of enhancing talent, and absorbing purple qi]
...
Li Cheng's eyelids twitched involuntarily!
A signboard...
It turned out to be a Four Virtues Divine Armament!
Impressive!
No wonder it's the Divine Sect!
They were wealthy and had deep roots, far beyond what a nouveau riche like Li Cheng could compare to.
Such a precious object was placed right at the entrance, but weren't they afraid of it being stolen?
Li Cheng couldn't help but take a deep breath.
However, who would dare to steal such a signboard from the main gate of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect?
As far as his eyes could see, the characters "Heaven-Earth" on the signboard seemed to have a phoenix spreading its wings, surrounded by a thousand zhang of purple qi, under Li Cheng's Star Plucking Eye.
Li Cheng stared at the characters, feeling a piercing pain in his eyes, as if a terrifying will was contained within them.
"Heaven-Earth? Why isn't the signboard of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect inscribed with 'Heavenly Origin'?"
Li Cheng took a deep breath, feeling a bit puzzled.
His gaze continued to scan the surroundings. Beyond the white jade archway, a spacious avenue led to a magnificent architectural complex with carved beams and painted rafters, flying eaves, and upturned corners, all adorned with gilded copper tiles.
In front of the main gate.
Jiao Shaoqiu stood there in a simple and ancient long robe, accompanied by Grand Master Nie Yang.
Nie Yang held a sword wrapped in rags, his face cold and stern. Beside him was little Li Chengzhou, clutching a short wooden sword and trying to imitate Nie Yang's stern demeanor.
The old carriage arrived, and the spring rain poured down.
"You've finally arrived," said Jiao Shaoqiu with a kind smile.
The curtain was lifted.
Li Cheng held Xixi, and with the other hand, he supported Zhang Ya as they all alighted from the carriage. Li Qingshan and Granny Mu also followed.
The air was incredibly fresh, filled with the scent of divine essence.
Everyone's pores seemed to open, and their spirits revived.
"Elder Jiao."
Li Cheng and his group approached Jiao Shaoqiu and greeted him.
Even Uncle's family was not unfamiliar with Jiao Shaoqiu.
"Xixi cannot enter the inner sect for now. She'll have to wait until the Sect Master's examination is over... I'm in charge of the outer sect, and with Xixi under my watch, nothing will happen to her."
This was Jiao Shaoqiu's promise to Li Cheng.
The fact that he could make such a promise meant that Jiao Shaoqiu had made thorough preparations.
"The Sect Master's wife has just emerged from seclusion. After some time, I'll take Xixi to pay respects to the Sect Master's wife.
Jiao Shaoqiu stroked his beard and said, "As long as Xixi can win over the Sect Master's wife, even if she doesn't become the Sect Master's direct disciple, she'll be able to easily establish herself within the Inner Sect in the future."
Upon hearing this, Li Cheng and Zhang Ya quickly thanked Jiao Shaoqiu.
As parents, they naturally hoped that their children would receive good treatment in a strange environment.
"There's no need to thank me. The Sect Master's wife has a... peculiar temperament. I can't guarantee that Xixi will catch her eye." Jiao Shaoqiu waved his hand.
"Outside vehicles are not allowed to enter the Divine Sect's gate, so we'll need to transfer."
In the distance, two Dragon Horse carriages approached, driven by Outer Sect disciples wearing the Outer Sect robes of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect.
"Husband, why are they driven by Divine Sect disciples?"
Zhang Ya leaned closer to Li Cheng and asked in confusion.
"Hahaha, within the Divine Sect, aside from the monthly resources provided by the sect, all other resources must be earned and fought for..."
"For example, Divine Crystals, pills, and so on. The monthly supply is limited. If you want more resources, you can venture into the Strange Temples or climb the Golden Tower..."
"This is a fair opportunity for competition. If you can't secure resources, it only means your strength is insufficient, and you need more practice."
"The Golden Tower is accessible to both Inner and Outer Sect disciples, but the Strange Temples they can explore are vastly different."
Jiao Shaoqiu's hearing was exceptional, and he couldn't help but overhear Zhang Ya's quiet muttering.
So, Jiao Shaoqiu explained, "The Strange Temples..."
Upon hearing this, Li Cheng finally understood why Jiao Shaoqiu had mentioned that unrelated individuals were prohibited from residing within the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect.
It wasn't just Divine Sect disciples or those employed by the sect who were allowed to stay permanently.
This was because...
Li Cheng looked around, and the mountain ranges seemed to stretch endlessly.
His Niwan Palace vibrated slightly, and the Fire-Eyed Mysterious Shocking Monkey Divine Form and the Hundred Turns Worried Dream Rabbit Spirit Form trembled and opened their eyes.
In his line of sight, he saw that between the mountains, there was one Strange Mist after another, surging into the clouds, wreaking havoc and transforming, as if they were forming distorted faces!
Strange Temples...
They were all Strange Temples!!!
Within the Divine Sect's gate, the number of Strange Temples was astonishingly high!
Even in Li Cheng's inner vision space, the True Monkey Divine Form slowly opened its eyes, and terrifying golden light accompanied by golden flames danced in its pupils.
It burned through the void, dazzling and brilliant!
It was as if he had witnessed a Strange Temple erupting with boundless Strange Mist, which was torn apart to reveal a temple.
That was...
The Four Guardians Strange Temple!
Li Cheng withdrew his gaze, and his heart couldn't help but tremble.
How could there be so many Strange Temples?
Ten Cities, Nine Stars, Eight Extremes, Seven Elements... Almost every level of Strange Temple existed within the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect's gate!
"These Strange Temples... were brought here by the Sect Master and the elders from the outside world. They are suppressed by the power of the Divine Sect, and at the same time, they have been transformed into places for disciples to temper their cultivation.
